The Champion Boof club mot
Saiurday, March 29, at ihe Loon
rd Carlson ranch. A largo por
rentage of the cnrollmont was
present when Ronald Baker, vice
president, called the mooting to
order. Old business included sev
eral reports on demonstration
teams scheduled to demonstrate
t the county fair and also at the
Taciflc International Livestock
show.
Each member gave a short re
port on the progress of his ani
mal and the amount of gain and
supplement being fed.
Later in the mooting, Mr. An
derson, county agent, reported
that the trailer scales that were
to be made have not yet been
completed. Ideas were expressed
concerning this subject. Mr. An
derson expressed an idea that if
some of the older members and
parents would get together and
complete the scale it would cost
much less than if it would be
done in a shop and would pro
bably be done much sooner.
Some discussion followed and
Saturday, April 12, was set for
the day to complete them.
All p.irents and members who
are able to be at the agriculture
fchep at the Heppnor school at
9 a.m. are urged to attend.
Other miscellaneous reports
wore given after which the meet
ing was adjourned. Refreshments
wore served after the meeting.
The next meeting will be held
at the Elmer Palmer ranch on
April 20.

wheat, and flour (in wheat equi
valent! totaling about 23 million
bushels and corn, barley, oats
and grain sorghums filling the
remainder of the allocation.
Grain exported or scheduled
for shipment during the current
marketing year should total
nearly 415 million bushels by
May 1. This figure Is 15 million
bushels more than the goal es
tablished last summer for the
1946-47 program. If shipments
continue at their present rate,

Where it has been practiced,
soil conservation farming has re
sulted in at least a 20 percent
increase in production per acre,
as an average, it is reported. '
It has provided a practical
guide to greater crop diversifi
cation, and has, as a matter of
record, resulted In greater diver
sification.
It has meant increased income
to the fanner and a saving In
seed, fertilizer, labor and power.
It has accounted for a high
degree of land protection, even
under the pressure of intensified
wartime production.
It has provided the farmer and
ranchman with a practical, phy
sical guide for shifts in the type
of intensity of production that
may become wise in the years
ahead in order to meet possible
changes in the price and de
mand for farm commodities.
Recommendations regarding
the' financing of a joint cam
paign .against foot-and-mouth
disease have been agreed upon
by Mexican and United States
oficials. The next step is trans
mittal of appropriate proposals
for action by Congress.
The recommendations include
an early U. S. contribution to the
campaign to $9 million $1.5 mil
lion for equipment, supplies, and
personnel, and $7.5 million for
indemnities on cattle slaughter
ed. An increased rate of expen
diture by the V. S. during the
fiscal year starting July 1 is pro
posed if a fully effective pro
gram of eradication is to be car
ried on.
